The loneliness feels so intense at times that my physical body aches and yearns to be held and comforted. At these times, I will need to be much more gentle with myself, mindful and present, and aware that there are others who care for me.
It feels awkward to be doing things alone. I can express gratitude for new things I’m learning.
I have people in my life who care about me. Today I will ask for help if I need it.
Some days I feel alone in the big world, separated even by my spiritual connections. In these moments I will remind myself to breathe mindfully, take in what is present, and remind myself that this too shall pass.
To miss someone is to know how much you loved them. Although the person is no longer with me, the love remains. I will find ways to express the love I still feel.
